How Search Engines Work: Crawling and
Indexing
![Page 6: Internet Marketing Overview: Part 2 of 12](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022103010/58f0d8db1a28ab55428b45a7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

How Search Engines Work• Start with a “Spider” or “Webcrawler”
- Software the reads webpages.• Text• Meta tags/HTML code
- It creates an index of content on each page.- Follows every link and indexes those pages too.- It indexes entire site maps/website architecture.- Creates a searchable index database noting the
content on every readable webpage.

What is an Index?• Example: Back of a book section lists
keywords, people, concepts, events, page numbers etc.
• Without an index, every webpage would have be scanned, then ranked, which could take hours or days.
- Ex: You would have to scan every page of the book to find the relevant pages.

Indexed Data Trade Off• Example: Shirt company expands product line
to include coats.• Google indexes the Internet in two to four
weeks.- Relevance to “coat” keyword searches could take
weeks or months.- Exceptions: Viral videos and lots of press
• Users save time in search, but there could be potential delay in being considered relevant to certain keywords.

Indexing Keywords, Files & Multimedia
• Spiders easily read text files, but are challenged by images, video, or animations (e.g., Flash or Java).
• Algorithms look at the webpage content and HTML code associated with the file.

What is a Search Engine?• A program that
- Accepts a query and searches an index database.- Using algorithms it finds keyword combinations in a
database that correspond with a query.- Ranks all the webpages that are relevant to the
keywords, not just the ones that matched.- Provides a list of webpages in order of relevance.

Search Engine Limitations

22
Search Engine Limitations• Search engines struggle with completing login/online forms.
- CAPTCHA protects forms from bots.
• “Robots.txt” code purposely blocking search engines.• “Nofollow links” code blocks search engines from following
links.• Minimally-exposed content may be deemed unimportant by
the engine's index.• Uncommon terms normally unused in seach.
- Ex: "food cooling units” vs. "refrigerators"• International languages
- Color vs. Colour- Content in French when the majority of the visitors are from Japan.
• Mixed context signals- Blog post reads "Mexico's Best Coffee" but content is about a
Canadian vacation resort that serves great coffee.

Anatomy of a Link
• "<a" tag indicates the start of a link. • The link referral location tells the browser (and the search engines)
where the link points. • Next, the visible portion of the link for visitors, called anchor text in
the SEO world, describes the page the link points to. • "</a>" tag closes the link to constrain the linked text between the
tags and prevent the link from encompassing other elements on the page.
• The crawlers can read this basic link and use it to calculate query-independent variables, and follow it to index the contents of the referenced page.
